vwl Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 After five chapters, Electric Blue and Catnip on Gay Authors looks like it is going to be a good story. It's here: http://www.gayauthors.org/story/lilansui/electricblueandcatnip The story is being nicely set up -- old and new loves, an accomplished pianist writing a film score, connections to Japan and New York. My guess is that the author is not a native English speaker, but the command of English is still excellent. Link to comment
Chris James Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 The author in question is lilansui, and several places on the internet list her as a 29 year old woman of Japanese extraction. (let's hope that is true and not part of the abstract behind which many authors hide) I do agree, she has a marvelous command of the English language, but then she may not be native Japanese. We often overlook the woman's point of view when reading gay stories. Nothing says a gay story has to be written by a man, just someone with a good deal of talent. Thanks for the heads up, vwl...always glad to find new things to read. Link to comment

Cole Parker Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 OK, I am looking for ways not to have to write, being a bit bogged down writing a story that isn't cooperating at the moment, and so started on this one. To me this looks, halfway through chapter 1, very much like a story written by someone whose English is not a first language. Both punctuation and sentence flow are nonstandard. It looks like she has a better grip on plot than English. Still, it isn't offensive; you merely have to allow for syntactical irregularities. C Link to comment
Camy Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 ...syntactical irregularities. C I love it when you talk dirty, Cole. Link to comment
